Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property felt fairly private. There were lots of beds. It was clean. The large tub was nice for a soak. The price was good and the property manager was responsive and helpful. I was offered extra days at a discounted rate, which was very nice since I needed to stay a little longer than originally expected. The property itself is located between two well-travelled roads, so there is car traffic noise. The parking is strange and frankly unnerving. You have to descend a steep set of stairs to access the duplex. The heat in the general space doesn’t work very well. The lighting along the staircase and path to access the door either doesn’t work or works intermittently.
